Overview

The recent legislative package on Clean Energy for all Europeans, specifically Regulation 2019/943 of 5 June 2019 on the internal market for electricity, places resource adequacy in a central position in the European energy policy context. As per Article 23 of the Electricity Regulation, ENTSO-E is required to develop a methodology for a European resource adequacy assessment, which should consider scenarios without existing or planned capacity mechanisms and where applicable, with such mechanisms, increased temporal granularity and sensitivities, Flow-Based capacity calculations and sectoral integration, among others. In addition to the methodology for the European resource adequacy assessment, ENTSO-E is tasked by the Electricity Regulation to develop a methodology for calculating the value of lost load, the cost of a new entry in generation and/or demand response and for a reliability standard, based on objective and verifiable criteria.

This consultation concerns ENTSO-E's proposal for a Methodology for a European Resource Adequacy Assessment developed in accordance with Article 23 of Regulation (EU) 2019/943.

Regulation (EU) 2019/943 requires that ENTSO-E develops the Methodology for the European Resource Adequacy Assessment and consults stakeholders before submitting the proposal to ACER.

A stakeholder workshop will take place on 16 December 2019. Registration links and further details about the workshop can be found at this link.
